TLDR
It is demonstrated in macrophages and B cells that collaborative interactions of the common factor PU.1 with small sets of macrophage- or B cell lineage-determining transcription factors establish cell-specific binding sites that are associated with the majority of promoter-distal H3K4me1-marked genomic regions.

Transcriptional and epigenetic regulation of macrophages in atherosclerosis.

TL;DR: The emerging role of transcription factors and epigenetic remodelling in macrophages in the context of atherosclerosis and inflammation, and a comprehensive overview of epigenetic enzymes and transcription factors that are involved in Macrophage activation are discussed.

Dnmt3a and Dnmt3b Associate with Enhancers to Regulate Human Epidermal Stem Cell Homeostasis

TL;DR: It is shown that in human epidermal stem cells, the two proteins bind in a histone H3K36me3-dependent manner to the most active enhancers and are required to produce their associated enhancer RNAs.

Base-resolution models of transcription factor binding reveal soft motif syntax

TL;DR: A deep learning model is introduced that uses DNA sequence to predict base-resolution ChIP-nexus binding profiles of pluripotency TFs, and interpretation tools are developed to learn predictive motif representations and identify soft syntax rules for cooperative TF binding interactions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Epigenetic regulation of macrophages: from homeostasis maintenance to host defense.

TL;DR: This review focuses on key epigenetic events associated with macrophage fate, highlighting events related to the maintenance of tissue homeostasis, responses to different stimuli and the formation of innate immune memory.

High-resolution profiling of histone methylations in the human genome.

TL;DR: High-resolution maps for the genome-wide distribution of 20 histone lysine and arginine methylations as well as histone variant H2A.Z, RNA polymerase II, and the insulator binding protein CTCF across the human genome using the Solexa 1G sequencing technology are generated.

RAG-1-deficient mice have no mature B and T lymphocytes

TL;DR: The introduction of a mutation in RAG-1 into the germline of mice via gene targeting in embryonic stem cells is described and it is shown that this mutation either activates or catalyzes the V(D)J recombination reaction of immunoglobulin and T cell receptor genes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-scale DNA methylation maps of pluripotent and differentiated cells

TL;DR: Low-throughput reduced representation bisulphite sequencing is established as a powerful technology for epigenetic profiling of cell populations relevant to developmental biology, cancer and regenerative medicine.
